Stand Up for Working Americans

Americans who work full time should be able to make ends meet and support their families. The Earned Income Tax Credit is a common sense tax break that helps workers, who struggle to get by, to pay for the basics – like transportation to get to work and childcare. The EITC should be expanded so that workers who can’t claim children on their taxes can put food on the table, cover rent and have a shot at a brighter future. Join us.

Help end human trafficking.

It's one of the greatest under-addressed issues of our time. More than 21 million people around the world are trapped in what amounts to modern slavery. Join the Generation Freedom campaign and help call on the 2016 Presidential candidates to end human trafficking and modern-day slavery in our generation.
